Hello all, I just joined this forum last week, and it's been amazing to read all of the posts from people who are going through stuff so similar to what I've been experiencing. I'm sorry this is a long post, but this is my first time starting a topic, and it's been a long journey to this point! After more than two years of extreme dizziness, fatigue, digestive problems, and a myriad of odd little symptoms, I was finally diagnosed with POTS officially a couple of weeks ago. (On my tilt table test my blood pressure went down to 42/25 and I passed out.) Even though POTS is hardly something to be happy about, I was relieved to have a name for everything I'd been suffering, and I was excited that I could possibly know how to treat my symptoms. (I'd been seeing a neurologist before this who had me on a diuretic to prevent what she thought were vestibular migraines. Of course the diuretic was making things even worse I figured out eventually!) I'm not feeling any better yet, but I've been on florinef for a week and a half now, so I have hope it will help soon. Unfortunately because I've been sick and it's taken me so long to figure out what my problem is, I've used up my FMLA for the year already. I was just unable to get around every day. It was so difficult to even get myself out of bed, and when I did, I was so dizzy, weak, tired, and had stomach problems. It was all I could do to get through the day, let alone put in 8 hours. Anyway, I eventually went back to work and my direct supervisor has been good to let me come back gradually. I've recently been working 5 hours a day and was hopeful that I could keep gradually upping my hours until I got back to full time. Sadly, the human resources department at my work doesn't seem to like this. They've called a meeting to go over my hours, and have sent me a copy of the college's policy on FMLA and told me to prepare any calendars and documentation I have. I've turned in all the paperwork and documentation that they've ever requested, so I'm skeptical that we're all just going to sit down and review it. I'm very afraid I'm going to be fired. Of course, this is NOT helping my health right now. I feel dizzier, weaker, and more nauseous/crampy than ever right now, plus my heart feels like it's going to explode! I'm so depressed that after trying to get better for so long and starting to get back to work, that I'm going to lose my job now. Maybe I'm overreacting. I've asked my direct supervisor if he can tell me what the meeting is going to be about, but I haven't heard back from him yet. Sorry again for the super-long post. I'm just feeling so sad right now and needed to share with people who might understand.
